- GlaxoSmithKline forecast 2019 sales of its fast-growing shingles vaccine Shingrix to be “significantly” more than 1 billion pounds on Wednesday as the British drugmaker outpaced first quarter forecasts.
“Shingrix has delivered another fantastic performance in the quarter,” Walmsley told journalists on a GSK results call. Shingrix sales were largely driven by the United States, which benefited from market growth in new patient populations covered by immunization recommendations as well as growth in Canada and the drug’s recent launch in Germany.
GSK's turnover rose to 7.66 billion pounds in the quarter, from 7.22 billion pounds a year earlier, and above a company-provided consensusAdjusted operating profit was 30.1 pence per share in the quarter, versus expectations of 26.1 pence per share.
